Abstract

Co-creation of value is an imperative practice in the service environment. Understanding education as a service encounter is an innovative approach for the context of higher education. Private Higher Education dominates the Brazilian scenario, with figures above 80% of students, and the Business undergraduate course is the largest in number of students in the country. Based on Self-determination Theory, this study aims to identify at what point the student acts as a co-creator in private education. Through Ethnomethodology, adherence of co-creation to education was identified, in which self-determination acts as a stimulus to generate value.
